The Museum of Russian Icons (MoRI) seeks a curator who is a well-versed and recognized scholar in the subject of icons, capable of deepening understanding of the collection and enhancing the museum's standing through exhibitions, its scholarly Journal, and professional connections.
Founded by industrialist, philanthropist and icon collector Gordon Lankton, the Museum holds over 1,000 pieces, the best collection of Russian icons in the United States. The AAM-accredited museum features state-of-the-art facilities and a lively annual array of temporary exhibitions, programs, and events. Its leaders have built on the founder's vision and set the organization on a sustainable path. A new curator will develop a collection plan, initiate collection research, develop temporary exhibitions, continue to make acquisitions, and connect MoRI to other scholars and institutions worldwide, while continuing to serve the town and region.
